israel said, that is fair to middle-class americans. that we need to have growth. put growth on the table. how do we get growth? if we have growth, we can produce revenue. we make decisions about running. we make decisions about cuts to the extent that they promote growth. that is something that we stand ready to support the president and something similar to what he proposed last year. i do not know what his current proposal will be. we will hopefully find that out on friday when we go to the white house. i want you to be disabused of any notion that there is any widespread thought that it would be a good thing for our country for us to go over the cliff. we want an agreement. we want an agreement. i will see you tomorrow at 10:00 or those of you who are interested. see you there? >> stay tuned. interest. >> on the first day of legislative business since the 2012 election, the senate as outlined their party positions on eliminating the fiscal cliff. from the senate floor, this is 20 minutes. >> after our election, i welcome everyone back. the summer was a last bre

obviously, that is up to israel to decide. however, i will say that we continue to believe that there is still a window of opportunity to reach some kind of resolution over iran's nuclear program. now i am not wild eyed optimistic about it, but it is imperative that we do everything we can, unilaterally, bilaterally, multilaterally to test that proposition. i think what was meant about the march reference was either about the iaea and its continuing work or the fact that we finished our election and now it would be a good time to test the proposition, that there can be some good faith in syria's negotiations. i think that it is a difficult matter to predict because it really depends upon how serious the iranians are about making a decision that removes the possibility of there being able to acquire a nuclear weapon or the components of one that can be in effect on a shelf somewhere and still serve as a basis for intimidation. we get differing reports, as i'm sure you have seen, as how the supreme leader is about that, but we w
